Technology pioneer Vicon captured by Red Lorry Yellow Lorry

After a competitive tender, Vicon, the British-headquartered global motion capture pioneer, has chosen technology, media and telecoms PR specialist Red Lorry Yellow Lorry

Vicon's high-end cameras and 3D processing software are the creative technologies driving character movement in animated film, TV and games production, for analysing motion in life sciences, and enabling the engineering industry to efficiently design new products.

A hugely successful technology pioneer in the film and games industries, Vicon systems have been used to enable realistic character animation in box-office movies such as Avengers and Iron Man and in blockbuster video games such as Halo and Call of Duty. The company's technology also plays an essential role off screen; pioneering work in the medical field is helping to rehabilitate injured soldiers, while its innovative solutions enable the aerospace and car industries to analyse, visualise, simulate and enhance design and motion. Vicon is part of the publicly quoted
